In fairness it wasn't going swimmingly before the subs. ....

That first 10 minutes of the second half was as poor as I've seen. Of he hadn't made the changes we'd have lost. It was obvious we needed another midfielder.. what would you have done? Both strikers were in yellow cards and no way they could maintain their pressing the way they had in the first half. One had to go off, and he made the right call not subbing Barnes (who was justifiably MOTM, and set up the winner). Hernandez did play well, but again he's not a 90 minute player and we were getting overrun. I don't think he was lucky, I think he got the subs bang on, when the team were massively underperforming in the first 15 mins of the second half.
